Bit of a rainy and cloudy day but it’s warm so I went for a walk

Shouldn't the developers, e.g. the developer of Edge especially but also other nearby projects have paid in to build the Kariya Drive extension? Isn't development supposed to pay for itself? How much can a short portion of a minor road possibly cost? It's literally like 150 metres.

I like the renders but is it just me or is there less legroom than I'd expect?

I have walked by this a couple times but always in too much of a rush to stop and look in detail.

I take Joan all the time (when driving). The city's fault for not extending Kariya when the school was built. Don't know what they're waiting for.

Yeah I get it. It's not like Central Parkway is that far. I walk to Cooksville GO without waiting for the Mississauga bus anyway.

I live on Elm--I wish the stop was at Elm instead of Central Parkway. I think there's more density on Elm than Central Parkway, even though Elm is a minor street and Central Parkway (formerly Bloor, many eons ago) is a major road (or at least, well-known).

Is it just a rebranding or they aren't having a station in Bolton anymore?

I want to like this but there’s not a single section that I drive on frequently. Why are they doing this so piecemeal?

I would definitely take this as an opportunity to name the station what it should have been named to begin with, Steeles West, just as you say. To me, any other name would be unsatisfactory. "The Village at Black Creek" would be a monstrosity of a name worse than "Vaughan Metropolitan Centre".

I'm at Hurontario and Elm so the western edge of MCC is a bit of a walk for me. Hurontario is one of the most important streets in Mississauga, and it's not very urban all things considered. A lot of buildings don't actually front onto Hurontario (I noticed this when I was curious what the...

I always take train 668 on a Wednesday so I guess that's why I haven't seen it yet.

I usually take trains 668 and 69. How come they never use the new trains?

Confederation will feel more urban if/when the Hurontario LRT runs down it for the city centre loop. It may feel like a proper urban street! Maybe

People will literally complain about everything.
